5.0 out of 5 stars Finally, the case I've been looking for., October 5, 2005

This is the best PSP case for a mature gamer. I'd like to rate this on a few levels.

1. Utility. This case holds the PSP, 3 UMDs and 4 memory sticks. I wish it held more UMDs and less memory sticks. I have 3 games and only one memory stick (it's in the unit). Perhaps music or movie fans would have multiple memory sticks, but the room for them seems to make the case too large. The pretty clear plastic top of the case seems to serve no real purpose other than making the case longer since it extends over each side considerably.

Since this case requires you to remove the PSP to play it, it is probably not the best for a child unless he/she is particularly responsible about putting things away. There are plenty of other cases that stay on the unit while it's being played so it is protected.

Since it's a hard case it is easy to pull out of a backback or other luggage. It also comes with a clip that allows you to attach it to the outside of a bag to provide immediate accessibilty.

If you want to carry around more than one UMD or memory stick and are mature enough to return your unit to the case when you are done playing: this it the case for you. Otherwise, check out the Logitech Playgear Pocket.

2. Style. I needed a case that I could pull out on a business trip without looking like a child to my work colleagues. This case looks very modern, but mature. This case is quality. When you open it you know it was well designed and purpose built. It is made of solid, well put-together plastic. If the quality of a case is important to you, then this is the case for you unless you can afford a custom leather case which cost more than 3 games.

3. Durability. I've had the case for over a week and I expect the clear plastic to scratch a little. I feel like I can treat the case fairly rougly because it seems so well made and how well protected the PSP is inside. I expect this case to outlast my PSP.

... for the weight, I'd rather just take my entire PSP setup in my leather Core Gamer case. If I'd known this thing was going to be this heavy, I'd have passed entirely or gotten the neoprene zipper case that my kids have. I wanted something that would clip onto a belt loop, which this certainly does, but at the expense of nearly ripping it off. The weight of the case by itself is absurd, as heavy as my Nyko Theater Experience unit, which certainly has more perks.

Yes, it's well-lined and nicely padded. Yes, the four Memory Stick slots are nice (especially since I have that many). Yes, it's nice to carry a few UMD's around with you on short outings. But for my money, it just doesn't come close to the Core Gamer case, which holds everything including my Nyko Theater Experience unit (which, in turn, keeps my PSP safe and secure in its brushed aluminum housing with its very nicely padded, flocked interior), charger, UMD cleaner, UMD laser cleaner, headphones, headphone remote, headphone extension, external brick battery and clip-on unit for the PSP, 10 UMD's, four memory sticks, and ridiculous numbers of cleaning cloths.

I'm sure one of my kids will wind up with the Playgear Street case. It's just not my bag.

I purchased this because I thought it would be an easy way to listen to music on my PSP while running. However, trying to wear the thing "messenger bag" style, the unit shakes up and down while running and is just annoying. Otherwise, it will be nice to have my PSP and a few games all in one place if I'm traveling.
